Tunnel Beach Walk
Best at low tide this twenty minute easy walk from the carpark on Tunnel Beach Road through private farm land takes you to a magnificent sandstone sea arch and man-made tunnel to the secluded beach with fossil filled cliffs on all sides.
The tunnel was built by John Cargill (the son of William Cargill, the founder of Dunedin) so his daughters would have a private beach away from the prying eyes of St Clair. The beach has massive sandstone boulders, mysterious graffiti carved into the cliffs and a dangerous rip that sadly drowned Cargill's youngest daughter.
